The Bulletin is an Australian weekly magazine, which has been published in Sydney since 1880. It was immensely influential in Australian culture and politics from about 1890 until World War I, the period when it was identified with the "Bulletin school" of Australian literature. Its influence thereafter declined steadily. In the 1960s it was revived as a modern newsmagazine, and still occupies a modestly important place in Australian publishing.The Bulletin 's literary editor, A.G. Stephens, was the main inspiration for the "Bulletin school." Among the better-known contributors were the writers Henry Lawson, Banjo Paterson, Bernard O'Dowd, Joseph Furphy, Miles Franklin and Vance and Nettie Palmer, the cartoonists Livingston Hopkins and Phil May and the illustrator and novelist Norman Lindsay.
